27 October 2023 Ashley Shelbrooke, HEPA and Project Specialist
Yesterday, 26 October 2023, the Procurement Bill completed its passage through Parliament and received Royal Assent.
Go live is planned for October 2024, as highlighted in the recent Cabinet Office update.
Over the coming months we can expect to see the secondary legislation introduced which will underpin the Procurement Act, as well as the release of the various learning & development products which will help you get to grips with the new regime.
HEPA represents the sector on the Transforming Public Procurement Working Group; as we approach implementation, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me to share how the changes are being received, and any support that you or your stakeholders may require.
